“Scared of Change” is about being afraid of something changing. It also makes references to how nighttime can bring out darker thoughts. In the end, the song has a positive outlook that no matter how messed up his head is, he’ll be okay
[Verse 1]
I was scared of change
Knowing nothing would be the same
Stressed and overwhelmed, I began to cave
My mind was spinning in circles, so out of control
I closed my eyes and hoped for acceptance
[Chorus]
Anxious and barely breathing
Watching my life turn inside out (Turn inside out)
Nervous, my hands were shaking
Everything was slowly fading away
But I'll be okay
I'll be okay
[Verse 2]
The clouds roll over the hills
And the sun begins to shine
I say goodbye to the worried ghost that was trapped inside
Set me free from the darkness that covered me
[Chorus]
Anxious and barely breathing
Watching my life turn inside out (Turn inside out)
Nervous, my hands were shaking
Everything was slowly fading away
But I'll be okay
[Bridge]
My life may change
But it won't change me, it won't change me
'Cause I'm always gonna be who I wanna be
I can feel the pages burning
Faster than the wheels are turning
But my head stays high
My life may change
But it won't change me, it won't change me
'Cause I'm always gonna be who I wanna be
I can feel the pages burning
Faster than the wheels are turning
But my head stays high
[Chorus]
Anxious and barely breathing
Watching my life turn inside out (Turn inside out)
Nervous, my hands were shaking
Everything was slowly fading away
But I'll be okay
[Outro]
My life may change
But it won't change me, it won't change me
'Cause I'm always gonna be who I wanna be
I can feel the pages burning
Faster than the wheels are turning
But my head stays high
